Nicole Kidman and Katie Holmes allegedly shared a special connection that went way beyond sharing the same ex.

In its August 23 issue, OK! magazine claimed that Kidman reached out to Holmes after the latter’s divorce from Tom Cruise was announced years ago.

And since Kidman also experienced what it was like divorcing Cruise, she gave Holmes pieces of advice.

“Nicole knew firsthand how difficult it was to walk away from Tom and the stress that comes with being married to such a huge star,” the source said.

Kidman and Holmes also related to each other well because they had a similar stand when it came to Scientology. Both A-listers allegedly tried to part of the religion but left shortly after.

“Nicole finally felt free to say her piece. She grew a lot in the years since her split from Tom and was no longer afraid of being silenced by the church,” the source said.

In the end, Kidman allegedly reminded Holmes to just hang in there through it all. And the Dawson’s Creek actress certainly listened.

Holmes reportedly has a lot of respect for Kidman. And she was grateful for her support during one of the most difficult times of her life.

For now, Kidman and Holmes are not able to hang out because of the pandemic. But they know that they have each other’s backs no matter what.

However, there is no proof that Kidman reached out to Holmes years ago following the end of her marriage to Cruise.

Until today, no one knows for sure if the A-listers have ever met each other in the first place.

Meanwhile, Kidman also made headlines recently amid claims that falling in love with her husband, Keith Urban changed her life for the better.

The A-listers are happily married with two daughters, Sunday Rose and Faith.

A source said that the greatest joy of Kidman’s life is parenting her two daughters and being a wife to her husband. In fact, the actress couldn’t imagine a life without the three of time.

But for Kidman to be able to find love, she first had to let go of some of her baggage.

The Big Little Lies star first had to forgive Cruise following their painful divorce. And she also had to reconnect with her estranged children, Bella and Connor Cruise.

And only then was Kidman able to focus on her love and find her true love, Urban.
